Incorporation: a guide to the valuation of accounting firms - 1988 - Accountant (5810) February 1988, 5-7(3) .
The increasing likelihood of incorporation becoming a reality has presented accounting firms with a number of questions. Who owns the goodwill of an incorporated accounting firm? How much will the partners be worth? What will happen to the share of the ex-partners? If an accounting firm were floated, how much would it be worth? and can a p/e ratio be put on it, and how would one go about it?. This article reports on the findings of a survey of reactions to these questions conducted by The Accountant among partners in the profession.
